Marin County Girl Scout Day Camp

Camp Arequipa: 2026

Making new friends

WHY WE LIKE DAY CAMP!

∗ EARNING badges, eating Otter Pops, archery, swimming, workshops, leather, singing songs and meeting new friends are some of the many things that make Arequipa special to me. I have been to other camps, but Arequipa is the friendliest!
— Siena, age 12

∗ I REALLY enjoyed doing the crafts especially the leather crafts and name tags. I LOVED Archery. It was so fun. It’s hard to explain why. And sleeping outside under the stars on the overnight!
— Bonnie, age 13
∗ I LOVE camp because we get to learn about nature, go on hikes and do outdoor cooking. Also the staff is really nice! (The Otter Pops are good, too!)
— Julia, age 10
Program aides ∗ I’VE been coming to camp since I was seven years old. I love everything about camp, the atmosphere is wonderful, and everyone is so helpful and kind. I am so proud to be a member of such a great camp. Through my years of camp I’ve moved up through the ranks from a camper, ANT, PA, U-LIT, and now I am a Director-in-Training, and I can’t wait to see where else Girl Scouts will take me through my life.
— Lauren, age 17

∗ I LOVE all of the fun activities at camp because they are awesome, and I can’t wait to be a PA!!!!
